Teach Your Kids to Work (Before It's Too Late) with Joel and Mary Beeke

Are you accidentally raising a lazy adult? In this episode, Jonny sits down with Joel and Mary Beeke (author of "Teach Them to Work") to talk about why — and how — parents should train their children to work from an early age, not wait until adulthood.

You'll learn:

• Why waiting until your kids are grown to teach them to work sets them up to fail

• Practical ways to teach work to toddlers, young kids, and teens

• The "5 E's" of raising a hard worker: entreaty, example, expectation, equipping, enjoyment

• How to respond to the myth that "they have their whole life to work"

• Why screens and overindulgence are quietly harming your kids

• How moms play a uniquely powerful role in shaping a child's work ethic

Whether you have toddlers, elementary-age kids, or teenagers, this conversation offers practical, biblical wisdom for raising children who see work as a gift from God — not a curse.
